Horror Short Film "The Auteur" | ALTER | Online Premiere

Description :

A male film writer begins to write his perfect, objectified female character to terrorise, but he is not prepared for her to fight back. The story explores a world of unseen expectations, where the writer’s motives are unclear until it is almost too late. It reflects the creator’s own struggle to form an identity in a world that expects a certain role, and it feels meta as it is his first time directing while figuring things out. The film draws on horror and thriller influences and aims to let audiences recognize their own struggles and take control of their narrative.
